OUCH!!!! I'll try anything once, as long as it doesn't hurt! Then, maybe twice!
The PB Blaster- Is that "Peanut Butter" in a shot gun? Just kidding.
OK longview1, Let us "normal" folks know how the recipe works out. Thanks.

There are several topics here on loosening rusty bolts etc. with lots of "formulas" including the "candle trick".

We could just about open a whole "rusted bolt" forum.
BTW..... I notice there seem to be lot of posts about rusty oil pans or something like that. How is that happening? I don't think I've seen that..... although it wouldn't surprise me to see a chinese aftermarket pan rust out like their craptastic rocker covers!

rusty bolts....
I have heard a lot of guys talk about a product called "mouse milk" and they all swear by it for loosening rusty things. I have never used it myself.
I did have a guy give me an aerosol can called Yield that worked great but when I went to get more I found out it cost $12 a can.
